We arrived in Prague late in the evening and found a hotel for the night on the outskirts, and went into the city in the morning, finding our hotel there, a pension, in a residential area just a few metro stops from the old city.  We of course, saw the typical tourist sites, but we also enjoyed an enjoyable dinner at a pub called the rope makers Wife  - It was a very enjoyable dinner, of Pig leg with mustard and horseradish! 

(Non alcoholic beer - no worries!!)

We got to see the beautiful castle and the town square lit in the evening, although the twilights are LONG so it was difficult to see how beautiful it was until after 10 PM... and we petered out by 9 something!   We walked about 15 miles over the last 4-5 days, 4-7 miles per day!!  Here is just a little of the beautiful

    

 

 

 

 

 

Of course we enjoyed crossing the Charles Bridge, seen here from the tower. 

 and at night!

 

Another interesting visit was to the Jewish Ghetto and this amazing Cemetery where the graves were one on top of another for 400 years!
